We explored the genetic control of cholesterolemic responses to dietary cholesterol and fat in 575 pedigreed baboons. We measured cholesterol in b-lipoproteins (low density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDLC]) in blood drawn from baboons while they were consuming a baseline (low in cholesterol and fat) diet, a high–saturated fat (lard) diet, and a high-cholesterol, high–saturated fat diet. In additi...
BACKGROUND LDL can vary considerably in its cholesterol content; thus, lowering LDL cholesterol (LDLC) as a goal of statin treatment implies the existence of considerable variation in the extent to which statin treatment removes circulating LDL particles. This consideration is particularly applicable in diabetes mellitus, in which LDL is frequently depleted of cholesterol. METHODS Type 2 diab...
BACKGROUND If treatments are used to modify a trait, then patients with high-risk genotypes for the trait should be found at higher frequency in treatment groups than in the general population. The frequency ratio of high- to low-risk genotypes treated should reflect the mean threshold above which the treatment is given in the population. As an example, we hypothesized that because APOE (apolip...
BACKGROUND Statins are important in vascular disease prevention in the elderly. However, the best method of selecting older patients for treatment is uncertain. We assessed the role of plasma lipoproteins as predictors of risk and of treatment benefit in the PROspective Study of Pravastatin in the Elderly at Risk (PROSPER). METHOD AND RESULTS The association of LDLc and HDLc with risk was exa...
Low-density lattice codes (LDLC) designed for inter-symbol interference (ISI) channels are proposed in this paper, including the node-by-node belief propagation (BP) decoding algorithm and the construction of LDLC codes for ISI channels. A theorem is presented to illustrate that the nominal coding gain of LDLC codes can be increased by introducing ISI into the primary codes. Shaping operation m...
INTRODUCTION There are indications that oxidized low density lipoprotein cholesterol (Ox-LDLC) may play an important role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. In most developing countries, the interplay between the different lipid fractions and cigarette smoking has not been studied. This study assessed the effect of cigarette smoking on the alterations in plasma lipid fractions and their as...
BACKGROUND Directly measured low density lipoprotein cholesterol (DLDLC) has been reported to be more accurate than calculated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (CLDLC) using the Friedewald equation. However, some limitations of DLDLC have been reported. In this study, we evaluated differences between CLDLC and DLDLC measured using HiSens reagents. METHODS Data were collected from 582 perso...
INTRODUCTION. This study was conducted to determine the effect of statins on the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HSCPR). MATERIALS AND METHODS. This randomized clinical trial was carried out on 95 hemodialysis patients divided into three groups of atorvastatin, 10 mg; simvastatin, 20 mg; and lovastatin, 4...
BACKGROUND Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors, Praluent (alirocumab [ALI]) and Repatha (evolocumab [EVO]) have been approved as adjuncts to the standard-of-care maximal-tolerated dose (MTD) of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC)-lowering therapy (LLT), statin therapy, in heterozygous (HeFH) (ALI or EVO) or homozygous (EVO) familial hypercholesterolemia, or clinical ...
Despite the excellent success of lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) cholesterol for treating coronary heart disease (CHD), a major part of the population still suffer from CHD. This fact is more prominent among the high risk patients who receive lipid lowering treatment with statins. This treatment is based on the prevailing view that LDL cholesterol (LDLc) is the only importan...
